There is a boutique headphone amp converter for sale in the AA classifieds right now (no affiliations), check it out. Like the UHC Signature device linked below, it converts any amp under 25 watts into a "headphone amp". Seems rather expensive for what it is but it is a custom made piece from VTL. A nice box, high quality wires, resistors, binding posts, selector switch, one headphone jack.

But the much cheaper "off-the-shelf" option is the Antique Sound Lab UHC Signature headphone listening device. I used to own one and it works well with low-powered SET amps. $200 new, but used ones pop up in the Headfi classifieds every once in a while ...
